This site focuses on Republican politicians and conservatives that rip off their constituency. We have the Tea Party, fundamentalist churches, the corruption of ALEC and other special interests groups. But the site also supports progressive Democrats and the local Democratic Socialist of America. We must have ideas on how to replace regressive and corrupt politicians with something better.

Idiots of a feather flock together/Tiahrt/Bush

It was several years ago that Rep Todd Tiahrt interefeared in the affairs of Washington DC, by passes legislation to prevent needle exchange programs. He said it “sent the wrong message.” Of course the message it sends today is that people with drug problems don’t deserve to live. Now President George Bush is pushing to bring back the needle-exchange ban. If anyone has proven to be callous to the lives of others, it’s Bush. He had a record number of executions as governor and he has sent a lot of men to their deaths in Iraq.According to The Wichita Eagle:

Bush picks up where Tiahrt left offPostedAbout 11 hours agoThe meddling federal measure about needle-exchange programs is undead — the one once pushed by Rep. Todd Tiahrt, R-Goddard, and declared dead last year. President Bush’s proposed 2009 budget revives the measure, which prohibits the District of Columbia from using its own money to fund such programs. “That Mr. Bush would do this in a budget that will take effect after he’s left Washington strikes us as gratuitous and shortsighted,” editorialized the Washington Post.By Phillip Brownlee

Hi - I am trying to start a grassroots email campaign aimed at getting people to contact their reps about the coal-fired power plant legislation. I would love to email you a copy so you could pass it on. Thanks!

"Slacker" Ron Estes is our US House of Representative since Mike Pompeo left.

Here is a guy who did almost nothing (money or work) to win a special election. This slacker really doesn't believe he should have to work too hard now that he sits in Congress living off of your tax dollars while doing almost nothing to earn that money.

Ted Nugent blows!

Ted Nugent is a mediocre rock singer and musician who likes to support some of the most right-wing politicians and movements in the country. Don't buy his crummy music.
